Auria's proprietary algorithm uses the concentrations of the proteins (or complex biomolecules found in your body) S100A8 and S100A9 determined from the tear sample, together with age, to produce the score.
The test has a sensitivity of 92% which means our test will flag 92% of people who have a breast abnormality, and a specificity of 54% which means our test will identify people who don't have an abnormality 54% of the time. A reminder that Auria is not detecting breast cancer and is not meant as a replacement for a screening mammogram but as a supplement taken prior to your yearly screening mammogram.
